Chapter One Hundred and Four: A Shining Explosion

At the end of March, after the cast continued to arrive, the props team brought in the props that needed to be filmed on the first day, and "Die Hard" started shooting in the dark night of Fox Place.

In order to avoid pedestrians, there is a group of people around the perimeter who fence up warning things such as railings.

However, even if there is a warning thing, there are still people who come to watch the excitement, after all, I heard that someone is making a movie here, which arouses their curiosity somewhat.

It's also far from the residential area, and the sound of the explosion is not enough to affect the distant residents.

"Props set ready......

"The cameras are all in the right position......

"The gaffer is ready for me......

"The crew gave me a good preparation for what I would shoot. ”

Lester gave everything orders, sat down in the director's seat, picked up a book and read it.

"Mr. Lester, what are you looking at. ”

Bruce Willis, who had nothing to do, sat on a stool next to him and asked curiously;

The crew is still preparing some props that can only be filmed outside, so they have nothing to do, so they came over to talk to Lester.

"Roderick Thorpe's novel Nothing Lasts Forever. Lester Young took the novel in Young's hands.

Hearing the familiar name, Bruce Willis reacted, "This is the sequel to 'The Detective'." ”

"Yes, Die Hard is based on Nothing Lasts Forever. Lester added a point.

Bruce Willis was enlightened.

"The Detective" was adapted into a film back in 1980, when it was also Bruce Willis's debut film in a small bar role.

The film rights to the novel "Nothing Lasts Forever" are only possible thanks to Emanuel who bought him before it could be adapted and filmed by Lester.

Since Bruce Willis also asked about this, Lester talks to Bruce Willis about the action scene he will shoot later.

"You mean, you have to get rid of the stereotype of fighting the big heroes in the past. Bruce Willis listened to Lester's words, a little surprised.

Now the heroes in the film are all Xiaoqiang who can't be killed, either they are invincible here, or they are beaten there and there is nothing to do, this model is used until now, it is very cliché.

"I want a hero who fights the thugs with his bare hands, and then gets injured and becomes exhausted. "Leicester gives the hero he wants to be on the other side.

Bruce Willis was a little ignorant for a while, and he was a little too in-depth about the current hero mode, and he hadn't jumped out of it yet.

"Let's tell you this!" Lester told Bruce Willis about the new Hero Concept model he had come up with.

Alan Rickman, who had come over, heard the conversation between the two and sat down with a stool and listened to Lester's new model.

After 20 minutes, Lester finishes speaking, and Bruce Willis and Aaron Rickman finally understand what kind of action hero plot Lester wants.

This new mode of action is different from the current invincible hero cliché mode, he told the audience that even if it is a hero, it will be injured, emaciated, and exhausted, so that the audience can have a sense of substitution when watching, and the story will be more convincing, and it will not make people look numb and boring.

Bruce Willis admired Lester for coming up with such a solution, and listened carefully to Lester telling him action scenes.

Aaron Rickman plays the villain, and there are also some action scenes that need to be done, and Lester explains the action scenes of the two together.

Bruce Willis is the main character, and he also gave some of his own thoughts on action scenes.

"I agree. Lester took Bruce Willis' words.

"Director, get ready. ”

Bill Gates from the props team came over to interrupt the trio's talk and told Lester that he had everything he had to prepare.

"Mr. Alan Rickman. ”

Lester looked at him, his eyes clearly signaling him to leave.

Aaron Rickman was the most frightened of the explosions and gunfire, and understood Lester's words: "I'm going to hide." ”

The assistant took Aaron Rickman into a car far away from here, which effectively blocked out a lot of explosions.

Lester saw that Aaron Rickman had distanced himself from here, and looked at the crew who were already in their places, looking at him.

"Get started......

When the sound of the playing board sounded, the props crew lit up the fire line, and the miniature model placed in the middle lit up with a red fire.

Bang......

An explosion exploded in the miniature, and the ears of the surrounding personnel buzzed.

Some pedestrians outside the warning line looked sideways, and some curious people involuntarily wanted to come in and have a look, but were stopped by the crew.

In the crowd, the crew noticed the presence of paparazzi, which made them a hundred points more vigilant, lest the paparazzi run in and leak the filming.

Bruce Willis had a fire in his eyes, and his expression was incredible.

He hadn't been exposed to these explosion scenes in his previous acting, and now he saw an unusual shock.

Lester looked intently at the monitor screen, watching the scene of the explosion, and his heart was a little excited.

At the same time, when the miniature exploded, powerful cameras were placed on the side of the stairs in the elevator shaft in the building, and the ready gaffers pressed the snapshot when the explosion sounded, and the powerful flash flashed on the side of the staircase, and the blinding light made the gaffers have to close their eyes and wait for the snapshot to stop.

Through the feeds from the various cameras back to the monitors, Lester was satisfied that both sides were well prepared and didn't have to reshoot.

"Cut, pass. ”

The fire and lights were gone, and Lester shouted, telling the crew to prepare for the next explosion.

"Sweeping......

"Pack up......

The used props were taken away by the crew, and the places with stains were cleaned away.

"Mr. Bruce Willis, it's time for you to go down and get ready. Lester asked Bruce Willis, who had come to his senses, to put on his makeup.

Lester supervised the props for the next scene prepared by the rest of the crew, and the other actors also arrived in succession under the arrangement of the crew.

At the request of Lester, the car provided by the sponsor drove to Fox Square, and specially borrowed a police car from the local police department to act as a scene.

After a while, Bruce Willis put on his makeup and walked over.

The clothes are gray, the knees are smeared with red blood, the corners of the mouth are white, and there is dried blood, which is not real blood, it is fake blood, and the whole person is dressed as a makeup artist, like a Bruce Willis who has been attacked and exhausted.

This picture made Lester's eyes light up, and his vision was cheerful.

"Mr. Lester, look here. ”

At this time, Madonna came over with a camera in hand to say hello.

Lester subconsciously looked over, and Madonna hurriedly pressed it.

Lester, who was flashing with a dazzling light, quickly closed his eyes.

"It's time for you to get ready. Lester twitched the corners of his mouth and reminded;

Neither of them mentioned the events of that night, and they only treated it as a scene.

Madonna blinked, smiled and went down to prepare.

As the scene where the hero and heroine come out of the building tonight, Madonna will play a female reporter who finds the information of the male protagonist and gives the information to the male reporter.

"Okay, everyone is ready. Lester clapped his palms and shouted at the cast and crew.
